And now for my whine post - I lost my wallet.

Grrr!

I remember getting it out to pay for a couple of things at the grocery store last night.  From there, we stopped by the church for about an hour - they were having a family night.  Then I went home.  When I went to leave this morning, the wallet was missing.  I called the store, I called the church - no one has seen it.  I tore apart the car.  I looked all over the house.  

 

!!!!!!!!!!!Angry

I keep hoping it will turn up somewhere unexpected.

    I have, however, now found a lost pacifier and a library book which I am sure is over-due.

    I hope you find it.  I lost my license not long ago and my iphone over Christmas.  Both times, people turned them in.  Thankfully.  I was so happy.  Especially about the iphone.  I was sick to my stomach until I found it again.

    That sucks.  Do you have snow there?  Do you think it could have fallen out into the snow when you were unloading the grocery bags?  I hope you find it!

    I have a crap load of gift cards in my wallet and I keep thinking that I should get a separate change purse to put them in.  I'm pretty vigilant about not leaving my purse open and not leaving it in the cart and walking away/turning my head.  But if someone somehow steals my wallet, I'll deal with having to get a new license and credit cards, but I will be beside myself that all of my gift cards are gone.

    I'm going to look myself at church tomorrow, although I pretty much trust that if they say it's not there, it's not there.  I tried calling the store again but they said to call tomorrow - if it is there, it's locked away and the people who have access to it wouldn't be back until the morning.  Crying

    No snow here - although that is how we lost (and later found) a set of keys last year!!

     

    I feel like I am so good about keeping a good eye on my purse too!  I remember having it at the check-out at the store, and that is the last I know.  I don't know if I put it back in the purse though.  If I did, there was no way someone could have taken it because I put it in the back of the cart and DS#1 sits in the cart.  It's too hard to get to.  But sometimes I hold onto the wallet, or shove it in next to DS#2 in his infant seat or something after I pay and on our way out.  So that's a maybe. I don't feel as though anyone got close to us.  Could have fallen out maybe.

    When we got to church I shoved my purse under a table and a lady who doesn't walk much/well sat down and pretty much blocked it the hour we were there.  When I pulled it out, I heard a "bang" and realized a plastic plate was leaning against it and fell over.  I thought maybe it fell out then. I mean, I suppose whoever put the plate there could have grabbed it, but that is pretty doubtful.  It's a small and open room and if ever my back was turned, it wasn't for long.  Someone would have easily seen and I doubt anyone from there would take it anyway (but anything is possible I suppose).

    Just doesn't make sense.

    I'm so paranoid, I even considered someone coming in our apartment and taking it out of my purse, haha.

    Sometimes I misplace keys or my phone, and then I realize I laid it down in the area of something else I was bringing in and putting away (like I put my keys on top the fridge when putting away groceries).  Nope. 

    *Sigh.  I know a girl who works at a tag agency here.  I think I'll call her Monday if it hasn't turned up and figure out how to go about replacing my DL and start the process of replacing the other stuff.

    Ugh, that is THE worst, having to call/cancel all your bank/CCs and replace a driver's license, that has happened to both DH and I!

    I'm so sorry and hope it actually does turn up!  ;)
